Rural America

Helping Communities Work (HCW) has journalistic roots in, "Empowering Rural America - A New Model Emerges", published in 2010 in Government Technology Magazine. The article focuses on broadband expansion and workforce development through a story line that features the impact of rural entrepreneurship in Virginia.

HCW welcomes opportunities to collaborate with stakeholders in "Investing in Rural Prosperity", an economic development plan for rural communities. The initiative is detailed in a book of the same name, edited by the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
